Ragusa is the city of two souls: the modern city and the ancient one of Ibla, its baroque living room.
This duality derives from the famous earthquake of 1693, which razed the city to the ground. The reconstruction, which took place in the eighteenth century, divided it into two large districts: on the one hand the upper Ragusa, located on the plateau, on the other Ragusa Ibla, built on the ruins of the ancient city.
